Montagne Sainte-Victoire (Paperback)

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Montagne Sainte-Victoire - in Provencal Occitan: Venturi / Santa Venturi according to classical orthography and Venturi / Santo Venturi according to Mistralian orthography - is a limestone mountain ridge in the south of France which extends over 18 kilometres between the departements of Bouches-du-Rhone and Var. Its highest point is the Pic des mouches at 1,011 metres (3,317ft); this is not however the highest point in Bouches-du-Rhone, which is instead found in the Sainte-Baume massif. The Croix de Provence is a notable feature of the mountain. At a height of 19 metres, this cross, although not placed at the highest point of the mountain, stands out from the ridge far more than the Pic des Mouches.
